Anti-inflammatory Properties of Neutral lipids, Glycolipids, and Phospholipids isolated from Aptocyclus ventricosus Eggs in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 Cells

초록/요약 도움말

Aptocyclus ventricosus (Smooth lumpsucker) eggs were harvested for the extraction of total lipids, which were subsequently separated into neutral lipids, glycolipids, and phospholipids. The current study evaluated the fatty acid profiles of neutral lipids, glycolipids, and phospholipids from A. ventricosus eggs, as well as their anti-inflammatory properties via cytotoxicity, NO production, the mRNA expression of immune-associated genes, protein expression of immune signaling pathways, and the expression of cell surface molecules against RAW264.7 macrophages. Firstly, the compositions of fatty acids of three lipids were identified by gas chromatography (GC) with flame-ionization detection (FID) analysis. The neutral lipids were found the highest monosaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) at 46.08%, while the glycolipids, and phospholipids were found the highest polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) at 41.61% and 39.31%, respectively. The main fatty acids in the three lipids were palmitic acid (17.04–26.91%), oleic acid (12.17–24.60%), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA 7.76–19.28%), and IX docosahexaenoic acid (DHA 8.33–17.98%). Secondly, the anti-inflammatory effects of fractionated lipids isolated from A. ventricocus eggs were determined in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Cells were pre-treated with each lipid at various concentrations (100, 200, 300, and 400 μg/mL) and stimulated by LPS (1 μg/mL). According to the results, three lipids dramatically decreased the amount of NO produced in response to LPS stimulation and the expression of immune-related genes such as iNOS, COX-2, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-4. The phosphorylated NF-κB-p65 and phosphorylated MAPK proteins (p38, JNK, and ERK 1/2) were down-regulated by A. ventricocus lipids, suggesting the three lipids stimulated by LPS exert anti-inflammatory activity via preventing NF-κB and MAPK activation. In addition, LPS-stimulated CD40 expression was reduced by A. ventricocus fractionized lipids in RAW264.7 cells depending on the concentration of the lipids. Therefore, these results indicate that the neutral lipids, glycolipids, and phospholipids isolated from A. ventricocus eggs could be considered as a potential lipid source for inflammatory diseases.
